Mythology: Spiritual Ruler - Chapter 494
“Temple… Pray… Sparta?”
Paris repeated these words on the banks of the Eurotas River.
In theory, as a prince, Paris should have been accustomed to such things.
After all, even the wife he was supposed to marry was the son of a river god.
But at this moment, Paris instead developed a sense of malice.
You know, in the “future” he saw, he was shot by a poisoned arrow.
At this time, he had clearly “repented” and hoped that his wife could save his life at the end of his life.
But the vicious woman did not do so. Instead, she angrily denounced Paris’s ruthlessness and disloyalty.
Haha…Although he was the first to abandon the other party, it was only because Helen was the destined true love.
Since he had already known his mistake, why did Oenone refuse to forgive him?
“Hmph, I’ve heard that Apollo, who drives the chariot, also made a mistake and was punished in Troy with Poseidon.”
“He was attracted by Oenone’s beauty on Mount Ida and taught her a good way to cure diseases and dispel poisons.”
With a sneer, holding the Elder Wand, Paris’s heart was filled with strong confidence.
Will I be wrong? Maybe.
But he has already apologized, and others still refuse to forgive him, so he is no longer wrong.
It is wrong to be fickle, but Oenone just hid it well, and everyone is not much different.
I didn’t even want you to die, but you didn’t save me… After convincing himself in his heart, Paris’s eyes became more and more unfriendly.
With the same identity, he still stood in the Spartan camp.
If it was the past self, it would be fine, but now, the opponent’s strength seems to be just like this.
“Eurotas, the river god of the Spartans, you actually want me to pray to you on this land that belongs to humans.”
“If I refuse you, what will you do?”
“… I won’t do anything, human, no one forces you to pray.
“But even if it is to follow the laws of the Kingdom of Sparta, you can’t build a bridge here privately.”
The river god was angry and felt that the prince in front of him was simply unreasonable.
However, there are many similar examples among human heroes, so looking at the fearless humans in front of him, Eurotas took another step back.
“In fact, mortals, for those who are truly capable, those with noble blood, I never stop them from crossing the river in their own way. “
“My bridge is only for most humans, not everyone. “
“So if you don’t want to, you can also choose to refuse. “
“Flying or other methods, you can cross me with your own ability. “
The words were well-reasoned, and the words of the river god made Paris unable to refute for a while.
Yes, from beginning to end, the reason why Eurotas appeared here was just because of this bridge.
However, when the river god’s voice fell, the prince was stunned for a moment, and then a stronger dissatisfaction arose in his heart.
I have already defeated fate, so in comparison, why do you want me to follow your rules!
“Hehe, but I refuse.”
With a sneer, he shook his wrist lightly, and with the prince’s will, a force acted on this temporary stone bridge.
It began to become strong and difficult to be damaged.
After doing all this, the prince stepped onto the bridge.
“No one can teach me how to do things, go back to your riverbed.”
“In the name of Paris, from today on, this stone bridge will last forever!”
“Human, you——! “
Pointing at Paris, blood rushed to his face, and Eurotas, with a red face, could not help but glare.
This mortal was too arrogant, so he could no longer bear it.
The long river began to rise with the anger of its owner, and the river god added his power to the rolling torrent.
The waves that were enough to break steel hit the side of the stone bridge, but in the prince’s sneer, the entire stone bridge did not move at all.
A few drops of water splashed on his face, and Paris wiped off the water marks.
Looking at the astonished river god, the prince couldn’t help laughing and drew out his magic wand.
“Hahahahaha… As expected, evil gods, you have been malicious for a long time.”
“It’s just a bridge, what’s the big deal, compared to you forcing others to sacrifice, it’s nothing.”
“Come on, let me get rid of the harm for the people today.”
“When I get rid of you and the brutal Spartan royal family together, the people here will thank me-unless they are your accomplices.”
“Now, let you start. “
A ray of light was drawn from the tip of the magic wand. Under Paris’ will, reality was tampered with in front of the mind.
The soil on both sides of the river turned into chains and bound the river god, with some blue light rushing around.
Despite struggling hard, Eurotas was finally firmly locked on the water in front of the powerful force of the magic wand.
With a smug smile, Paris approached the river god step by step.
“Gods are just like this.”
“Since I have defeated death, what else can this world do to me?”
“If fate can’t kill me, how can you beat me?”
“Woo-woo–“
The river god couldn’t speak with his mouth blocked, but the prince could still see the other’s anger in his eyes.
But what’s the point of this? In the face of absolute power, your resistance itself is just a joke to please me.
“You…come here.”
With a wave of his magic wand, Paris unexpectedly spotted a figure out of the corner of his eye.
It was a woman with extraordinary appearance, who seemed to be around thirty years old.
Judging from the white skin, he was probably a nearby human noble.
Hehe, I thought that the daughters of Spartans were all very tough, but I didn’t expect that there were exceptions… He raised his hand to call the other party from a distance, and the prince casually ordered:
“Tell me, what’s your name?”
“Well… forget it, it’s not important anymore.”
“The important thing is that this evil river god was finally surrendered by me. From now on, you no longer need to cross the bridge he built.”
“From today on, you will be able to cross the bridge I built, and no one will make any demands on you…and you are the witness to all this.”
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and after speaking, the prince seemed to have remembered something.
He then pointed his wand down towards the water.
The next moment, three waves rose from the river and then rushed away into the distance.
This river god seems to have built three bridges at the intersections of three roads.
But now that I have my own, there is no need for those to exist.
“Remember, this is the deeds of Paris, who defeated the destined death, and his trip was to save the most beautiful Helen in the world… This is my gift to her, and you want to tell my story spread across this land.”
“Do you understand?”
“…”
Being restrained by the invisible force, the woman glanced at the still struggling River God and nodded slowly.
“My name is——”
“It’s not important.”
Interrupting the woman’s self-introduction, Paris thought silently for a moment.
He then waved his wand again, causing the ground next to the river to crack.
The next moment, the river god Eurotas sank into it with a ‘wuwu’ sound, and then the cracks closed again under the will of the prince.
After doing all this, Paris nodded with satisfaction, and then tapped the woman’s forehead with the tip of the wand.
There was a flash of light, as if something was left on her body.
Withdrawing his right hand, the prince smiled and explained:
“…Well, as you can see, the evil river god got the result he deserved, and what I just imposed on you was a very ordinary curse.”
“Well…just like the stories circulating in the world, every wizard is good at this.”
“So you know, if you fail to spread my deeds, the curse will kill you.”
“I don’t think you are so stupid?”
“……I see.”
“Besides, I’m-“
“Okay, that’s not important.”
“Now, just do what you should do.”
“Hahahahaha…”
Waving his hand to interrupt, Paris laughed loudly. The prince felt extremely happy at this moment.
He waved his wand and flew into the sky, flying towards the city on the other side of the river.
Having once again proven his power with a regional god, Paris can’t wait to see Helen.
Compared with his true love, this Spartan woman was also very beautiful, but for some reason, the prince didn’t want to see her at all.
“…”
He left under the support of the strong wind, and soon, Paris’ figure disappeared from the horizon.
On the stone bridge built under his power, the woman remained silent.
After a long time, the woman walked off the bridge and came to the place where the river god Eurotas was buried.
Here, the power left by the wand does not end, but continues.
“…”
“Eurotas…I am Lachesis.”
“I’m sorry for what happened to you.”
“Wait a little longer…it won’t be long before you can see the light of day again.”
Under the earth, the River God who was still struggling seemed to have stopped moving.
On the ground, Lachesis glanced back at the stone bridge, carefully experiencing this magical power.
In her eyes, Paris’s wand was like a part of Atropos’ body, but mixed with other things.
This thing that was cut by the power of fate turned into this powerful wand. Even if Lachesis also controls the power of fate, she can’t do anything with it.
Destiny is the most stringent rule, and its order is reflected in its inviolability.
Anyone can defeat it if they find the right way.
If you can’t find a way, no matter how powerful the force is, you can’t shake its existence.
“elder sister……”
From the remaining strength, Lachesis seemed to see the traces Atropos had left.
Handing over his weapons with his own hands, he was betrayed by the greedy prince.
The scissors that cut short fate originally symbolized the power of fate to judge all things, so it is not surprising that it would form such a wand under Paris’s wish.
It’s a pity that Laxis can’t clearly see the other person who guided all this based on these alone.
His figure was shrouded in a layer of mist, and only from Paris could the goddess get his information.
trickle–
Transforming into a white dove, Lachesis soared into the sky.
Her eyes could clearly see where Paris was. The young prince was hiding in hiding, trying to sneak into the palace of Sparta.
Obviously, the prince did not want to scare Helen, so he preferred to get to know her first instead of violently breaking into the palace.
Flying in the clouds, Lachesis immediately accelerated and passed Paris’s position.
Flutter…
Diving down, among the densely packed buildings, following the guidance of fate, Lachesis flew from a skylight into a gorgeously decorated room.
Unlike the rough architecture of the Spartan city-state, this place is more like the place where princesses from other kingdoms live.
The white dove circled in the house for a week, and then turned into Lachesis again.
The goddess looked at the furnishings around her, and then pushed open a door leading to the bedroom.
Tap tap…
Walking into the bedroom, Lachesis saw a girl in sky blue pajamas on a bed covered with petals.
Although she couldn’t see her front face, just that kind of seductive temperament was enough to make anyone feel frustrated.
“Helen…”
Reading this name, Lachesis slowly stepped forward.
With every step forward, her appearance changed a little.
Until she walked to the girl’s bed, Lachesis had completely changed her appearance.
She gently stretched out her hand and covered Helen’s forehead.
Somewhere in the dark, some changes occurred.
At this moment, Lachesis was Helen.
The backlash of fate came one after another, but the goddess just waved a long ruler to delay the time of the backlash.
Don’t worry about too much debt, this is what you have to pay to solve the problem.
And then, she just needs to wait for Paris to come.
